Mother's Day and Muttertag in Germany

The history of mom's holiday in Germany and around the world

Although the idea of honoring mothers on a special day was known as far back as ancient Greece, today Mother's Day is celebrated in many countries, in many different ways, and on different dates.

Where Did Mother's Day Originate?

The credit for the American Mother's Day observance goes to three women. In 1872 Julia Ward Howe (1819-1910), who also wrote the lyrics for "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," proposed a Mother's Day observance dedicated to peace in the years following the Civil War.

Such annual observances were held in Boston in the late 1800s.

In 1907 Anna Marie Jarvis (1864-1948), a Philadelphia teacher originally from Grafton, West Virginia, began her own efforts to establish a national Mother's Day. She also wished to honor her own mother, Anna Reeves Jarvis (1832-1905), who had first promoted the "Mothers' Work Days" in 1858 as a way to improve the sanitary conditions in her town. She later worked to relieve suffering during and after the Civil War. With the support of churches, business people, and politicians, Mother's Day came to be observed on the second Sunday in May in most U.S. states within several years of Ann Jarvis' campaign. The national Mother's Day holiday became official on May 8, 1914, when President Woodrow Wilson signed a joint resolution, but it was more of a patriotic day on which flags were flown in honor of mom. Ironically, Anna Jarvis, who later tried in vain to combat the increasing commercialization of the holiday, never became a mother herself.

Mother's Day in Europe

England's Mother's Day observance goes back to the 13th century when "Mothering Sunday" was observed on the fourth Sunday of Lent (because it was originally for Mary, mother of Christ). Later, in the 17th century, servants were given a free day on Mothering Sunday to return home and visit their mothers, often bringing along a sweet treat known as the "mothering cake" that was to be kept until Easter.

In the UK, Mothering Sunday is still observed during Lent, in March or early April.

In Austria, Germany, and Switzerland Muttertag is observed on the second Sunday in May, just as in the U.S., Australia, Brazil, Italy, Japan, and many other countries. During the First World War, Switzerland was one the first European countries to introduce Mother's Day (in 1917). Germany's first Muttertag observance took place in 1922, Austria's in 1926 (or 1924, depending on the source). Muttertag was first declared an official German holiday in 1933 (the second Sunday in May) and took on a special significance as part of the Nazi motherhood cult under the Hitler regime. There was even a medal—das Mutterkreuz—in bronze, silver, and gold (eight or more Kinder!), awarded to mothers who produced children for the Vaterland. (The medal had the popular nickname of "Karnickelorden," the "Order of the Rabbit.") After World War II the German holiday became a more unofficial one that took on the cards-and-flowers elements of the U.S. Mother's Day. In Germany, if Mother's Day happens to fall on Pfingstsonntag (Pentecost), the holiday is moved to the first Sunday in May.

Mother's Day in Latin America

International Mother's Day is observed on May 11.

In Mexico and much of Latin America Mother's Day is on May 10. In France and Sweden Mother's Day falls on the last Sunday in May. Spring in Argentina comes in October, which may explain why their Mother's Day observance is on the second Sunday in October rather than May. In Spain and Portugal Mother's Day is December 8 and is more of a religious holiday than most Mother's Day celebrations around the world, although the English Mothering Sunday actually began under Henry III in the 1200s as a celebration of the "Mother Church."

German poet and philosopher, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe: "Von Vater hab ich die Statur, des Lebens ernstes Führen, von Mütterchen die Frohnatur und Lust zu fabulieren."

Different Ways We Celebrate Mother’s Day Around The World

First of all, don’t panic. You’ve still got time to rush out and buy a card and a bunch of daffs. There are probably a few pubs still booking tables for Sunday lunch if you move quickly. And if distance isn’t on your side, you could always just pick up the phone and let the special lady know how much you love her this Sunday. Mother’s Day is actually the busiest day of the year for international phone calls, topping Christmas and New Year.

We thought we’d give some proper though to the origins of Mother’s Day this year, and we’ve picked out some of our favourite ways and reasons to celebrate the great mother ship below. Do you have a different way to celebrate Mother’s Day? Drop us a comment below!

USA – 2nd Sunday in May

American Mother’s Day always falls on the second Sunday in May, and leads the way as to when and how much of the Western world celebrates the great maternal figure. It all began when President Woodrow Wilson declared the day an official national holiday in 1914, after one Anna Jarvis of West Virginia launched a campaign to create a special day on the calendar that honoured mothers all over the States.

Jarvis then went on to lambast the national holiday when it took a rather swift commercial (and we daresay, predictable…) diversion from its simple, motherloving roots.

Ethiopia – 2nd Sunday in May

Mother’s Day in Ethiopia is a movable feast in more ways than one. The date it’s celebrated varies from year to year, and depends on the end of the rainy season. Once the rain ends, what follows is a three-day family festival where adults and young families trek home to their own motherland for the feast of Antrosht.

But these poor mums don’t get a day off domestic duties here like they might do in much of Western Europe – they’re still responsible for cooking up the meals and serving the family.

Germany – 2nd Sunday in May

Like America, Muttertag also takes place on the second Sunday in May. Unlike America, the day was once used as a Nazi propaganda tool during World War II. German Muttis were awarded military-style medals on Mother’s Day, in gold, silver or bronze, depending on how many children they had produced for the Vaterland.

And if you’re wondering which lucky ladies were awarded the medal of the highest order, the gold Mutterkreuz, it was those with no less than eight children in their household. These days, Muttertag is celebrated in a more light hearted fashion: flowers, cards, poems and other mum-pleasing treats.

Great Britain – 4th Sunday of Lent

Brits buck the general trend set by America, as our Mothering Sunday falls on the fourth Sunday of Lent. The Church of England deemed this particular Sunday a day for adults to make a pilgrimage back to their Mother Church in the 16th Century. And as a result, many a son and daughter released from work by their masters to visit said Mother Church would also end up reunited with their actual mothers on this day.

Churches still celebrate Mothering Sunday in the traditional sense, though in recent decades the day has taken a far more secular tack. The influence of America in general - as well as visiting American soldiers in World War II - has created a hybrid Mothering Sunday in the UK that merges old and new ideologies into one.

Supernanny would have a field day in Serbia. Mother’s Day over here is part of an unusual family fiesta that dominates the three Sundays before Christmas, and involves several lengths of ribbon. Mother’s Day falls between Children’s Day and Father’s Day, and on this day children will creep into their mothers’ bedroom in the morning to tie her feet with ribbons so that she can’t get up out of bed.

An enforced lie-in. So far, so good. But dear Mama is then held hostage until she caves in and agrees to give her little darlings treats, sweeties and presents. Father’s Day follows a similar theme, and on Children’s Day the little ones are bound up until they agree to behave themselves. Which may be a while…

Brazil - 2nd Sunday in May

Unsurprisingly, Brazilians go all out on Mother’s Day - it’s the second biggest commercial celebration to Christmas here.

And in a country which places the family at the very centre of life, throws the biggest community bash in history every February (Carnaval) and celebrates children as gifts from God, it’s no wonder that Dia das Mães is a multi-generational fiesta of food, song and dance.

Indonesia - 22 December

The Indonesian version of Mother’s Day is Women’s Day, celebrated on December 22nd to mark the anniversary of the First Indonesian Women’s Congress in 1928. This milestone in women’s political history - now marked annually with this national holiday - is used as a key date for launching campaigns, events and rallies to further raise the profile of women in Indonesia.

During the 33-year reign of President Suharto, however, the day was repackaged as a means to subordinate women and to impress upon women the importance of childbearing above all else.

International Mother's Day Dates in different countries around the world!

Mother's Day is celebrated all around the world. It seems to be a universal thing that cultures put a day aside each year to celebrate the act of motherhood. To pay tribute both to the miracle of birth and to the special woman who performed that miracle: your mother. However not everywhere celebrates Mother's Day on the same 'Mothering Sunday' as the UK.

There are many different Mother's Day celebrations around the world, as the complicated table below makes clear! The most common alternative date is the second Sunday in May. This is the American date, and it came about like this.

For whatever reason, possibly a wish to disassociate themselves from British traditions, the pilgrim fathers who first travelled to America didn't seem to take Mothering Sunday with them. Centuries later, in 1908, Mrs Anna Jarvis set up Mother's Day as the Americans know it today, for the second Sunday in May. In 1914 she was successful, and since then this has been the date of Mother's Day in America - and beyond.

Thailand-Pakchong: Beobachtungen und Erfahrungen

THAILAND-MUTTERTAG

Meine Favoritin unter den Initiatorinnen ist Julia Ward Howe: „1870 wurde von Julia Ward Howe eine Mütter-Friedenstag-Initiative unter dem Schlagwort peace and motherhood gestartet. Sie hatte das Ziel, dass die Söhne nicht mehr in Kriegen geopfert werden sollen.“(*) Leider hatte ihre Idee keine Chance.

In den USA werden die finanziellen Aufwendungen für den Muttertag nur durch Weihnachten übertroffen. Nach den Schätzungen der nationalen Einzelhandelsvereinigung werden im Durchschnitt 139 US-Dollar pro beschenkter Mutter ausgegeben.(*)

Gefeiert wir immer am 2. Sonntag im Mai. Eine besondere gesetzliche Regelung erlaubt den Blumengeschäften, an diesem Tag zu öffnen.

In meiner familiären Umgebung ist Mooy die einzige Mutter. Ihr Mann starb vor langer Zeit. Ihre Tochter starb bei der Geburt, der Zwillinge, die uns heute oft besuchen und mich als „Opa“ lieben.

Heute machen wir kein Brimborium. Ich gehe mit Mooy ganz langsam durch den fantastischen Garten. Es gibt die duftenden Jasminblüten und ich lade Mooy und alle anderen in ein schönes Restaurant ein, in dem es keine Feier mit den obligaten Lautsprechertürmen gibt.

Nachtrag: Es war heute Mittag sehr schön und hat Mooy so gut gefallen, dass sie kaum Hunger verspürte. Wir haben sie aber immer ermuntert.

Dieser Platz, den die bescheidene Mooy noch nie vorher gesehen hatte, machte sie bereits ganz glücklich und still.

Wir bekamen einen schönen Platz auf einer Außenterrasse über dem rauschenden Flüsschen. bei der Vielzahl der gerichte war Mooy überfordert und überließ uns die Auswahl der Vor- und Hauptspeisen.

Es war wirklich sehr lecker und strapazierte meinen Geldbeutel incl. der Getränke etwa in der Größenordnung eine einfachen Menues in Düsseldorf: € 17,-.

German Holidays and Customs in May

May Day, der Maibaum, and Walpurgis

The first day in "the lovely month of May" (Camelot) is a national holiday in Germany, Austria, and most of Europe. International Workers' Day is observed in many countries around the globe on May 1. But there are other German May customs that reflect the end of winter and the arrival of warmer days.

Tag der Arbeit - 1. Mai

Oddly, the widespread custom of celebrating Labor Day on the first of May (am ersten Mai) was inspired by events in the United States, one of the few countries that do not observe Labor Day in May!

In 1889, a congress of world socialist parties was held in Paris. The attendees, sympathizing with striking workers in Chicago in 1886, voted to support the United States labor movement's demands for an 8-hour day. They selected May 1, 1890, as a day of commemoration for the Chicago strikers. In many countries around the world May 1 became an official holiday called Labor Day—but not in the U.S., where that holiday is observed on the first Monday in September. Historically the holiday has had special importance in socialist and communist countries, which is one reason it is not observed in May in America. The U.S. federal holiday was first observed in 1894. Canadians also have observed their Labor Day since September 1894.

In Germany, May Day (erster Mai, May 1st) is a national holiday and an important day, partly because of Blutmai ("bloody May") in 1929. That year in Berlin the ruling Social Democratic (SPD) party had banned the traditional workers' demonstrations.

But the KPD (Kommunistische Partei Deutschlands) called for demonstrations anyway. The resulting bloodbath left 32 people dead and at least 80 seriously injured. It also left a big split between the two workers' parties (KPD and SPD), which the Nazis soon used to their advantage. The National Socialists named the holiday Tag der Arbeit ("Day of Labor"), the name still used in Germany today.

Unlike the U.S. observance, which cuts across all classes, Germany's Tag der Arbeit and most European Labor Day observances are primarily a working class holiday. In recent years Germany's chronic high unemployment (Arbeitslosigkeit, over 5 million in 2004) also comes into focus each May. The holiday also tends to be a day of Demos that often turn into clashes between the demonstrators (more like hooligans) and the police in Berlin and other large cities. If the weather allows, nice, law-abiding people use the day for picnicking or relaxing with the family.

Der Maibaum

In Austria and many parts of Germany, especially in Bavaria, the tradition of raising a Maypole (Maibaum) on May 1 still serves to welcome spring—as it has since ancient times. Similar Maypole festivities also can be found in England, Finland, Sweden, and the Czech Republic.

A Maypole is a tall wooden pole made from a tree trunk (pine or birch), with colorful ribbons, flowers, carved figures, and various other decorations adorning it, depending on the location. In Germany, the name Maibaum ("May tree") reflects the custom of placing a small pine tree atop the Maypole, which is usually set up in a town's public square or village green.

Traditional dances, music, and folk customs are often associated with the Maypole. In small towns virtually the entire population turns out for the ceremonial raising of the Maypole and the festivities that follow, with Bier und Wurst of course. In Munich, a permanent Maibaum stands at the Viktualienmarkt.

Mother's Day is not celebrated at the same time around the world, but Germans and Austrians observe Muttertag on the second Sunday in May, just as in the U.S. Learn more on our Mother's Day page.

Walpurgis Night (Walpurgisnacht), the night before May Day, is similar to Halloween in that it has to do with supernatural spirits. And like Halloween, Walpurgisnacht is of pagan origin. The bonfires seen in today's celebration reflect those pagan origins and the human desire to drive away the winter cold and welcome spring.

Celebrated mainly in Sweden, Finnland, Estonia, Latvia, and Germany, Walpurgisnacht gets its name from Saint Walburga (or Walpurga), a woman born in what is now England in 710. Die heilige Walpurga traveled to Germany and became a nun at the convent of Heidenheim in Württemberg. Following her death in 778 (or 779), she was made a saint, with May 1 as her saint day.

In Germany, the Brocken, the highest peak in the Harz Mountains, is considered the focal point of Walpurgisnacht. Also known as the Blocksberg, the 1142-meter peak is often shrouded in mist and clouds, lending it a mysterious atmosphere that has contributed to its legendary status as the home of witches (Hexen) and devils (Teufel). That tradition predates the mention of the witches gathering on the Brocken in Goethe's: "To the Brocken the witches ride. " ("Die Hexen zu dem Brocken ziehn. ")

In its Christian version, the former pagan festival in May became Walpurgis, a time to drive out evil spirits—usually with loud noises. In Bavaria Walpurgisnacht is known as Freinacht and resembles Halloween, complete with youthful pranks.

    Muttertag und Vatertag in Großbritannien

    In Großbritannien wird der Muttertag aus dem gleichen Grund wie in Deutschland gefeiert – nämlich um die Mutter zu ehren – und beruht auch auf der Begründerin Anna Maria Jarvis.

    Einen Unterschied gibt es aber doch: Anders als in Deutschland wird er am 4. Sonntag der Fastenzeit gefeiert. Dieses Jahr fiel der Muttertag auf den 22. März.

    Heute am Muttertag schreiben auch noch die Erwachsenen ihren Müttern eine Karte und verbringen, wenn es geht, den Tag mit ihr. Die Kinder sind kreativ und basteln und malen in der Grundschule für die Mama ein Geschenk wie zum Beispiel Papierblumen.

    Im Mittelalter gab es jedoch auch noch einen anderen Hintergrund. König Heinrich III. hat erstmal in England den “Mothering Day” am 3. Sonntag im März eingeführt. Das war der Lätarsonntag und an diesem mussten dann die Mägde und Knechte nicht arbeiten, sondern konnten ihre Eltern und Verwandten besuchen. Zu diesem Besuch haben wurde ein sogenannter Muttertagskuchen mitgebracht.

    Der Vatertag findet immer am 3. Sonntag im Juni statt. Auch hier wird dem Papa eine Karte geschrieben und die Jungs gehen mit ihrem Papa vielleicht ein Fußballspiel schauen.
